Li Yi and Yuan Shi'an watched in surprise as Feng Yuan strode forward and sat down in the only available seat, which should be Gu Yucheng's seat.
Feng Yuan didn't squint, pretending to be calm as he looked at Li Yi and Yuan Shi'an, clapped his hands and said, "Serve!"
The hired waiter immediately placed the food and wine prepared by Feng Yuan and those brought by the two or three people on the table.
The waiters carefully passed by Li Yi and others and placed the food and drinks. One of them accidentally spilled the soup on the table in front of Li Yi, and Li Yi cursed heavily, "Trash."
The person who was scolded quickly bowed and apologized, and Li Yicai waved his hand and let the person go.
Everyone looked at Feng Yuan, but Feng Yuan remained silent.
Feng Yuan looked at Li Yi and knew that the next step to make Li Yi surrender would be a lot of twists and turns.
After the food and drinks were arranged, Feng Yuan said, "Thank you very much for coming to the banquet. Next..."
"Business owner Feng!" Li Yi yelled, and everyone on the scene looked at Li Yi.
Li Yi even suppressed the shopkeepers sitting next to him to show his power.
Feng Yuan frowned and said, "Shopkeeper Li, what's the problem?"
Li Yi raised his eyebrows and said, "Yes. Where did Elder Gu go?! So many of us came here just to meet Elder Gu, but now Elder Gu doesn't show up. What does this mean?"
Feng Yuan asked directly, "Did Elder Gu say that he would attend today?"
After hearing this, Li Yi sneered, "Shopkeeper Feng! You are trying to confuse us."
As soon as Li Yi finished speaking, the shopkeepers around him shouted, "That's right! You're fooling us!"
The shops around Yuan Shi'an were also eager to try, just like a hunting dog that was tied to a rope but couldn't wait to rush out, looking at Yuan Shi'an longingly.
Yuan Shi'an didn't refuse or confirm, he just raised his glass and took a sip, as if he was encouraging or denying, but in the eyes of the excited shopkeepers, it seemed like he was giving permission, so the group of people They also started to boo.
Yuan Shi'an calmly shrank back and did not interfere with this group of people.
Feng Yuan looked at the people who stretched their necks wildly as if to bite him. Although he had expected everyone's reaction, he still felt a little uncomfortable after seeing it with his own eyes.
Li Yi looked at Feng Yuan provocatively, as if to say, "Come down quickly, you still have the nerve to sit on it? Just you, you still want to order us?"
Feng Yuan tried his best to calm down, thinking about what Gu Yucheng would do.
In a long period of blank thought, Feng Yuan gave up. He knew he couldn't do Gu Yucheng, so he yelled, "Shut up!"
Everyone paused for a moment, then broke out again, and the noise became louder again.
Feng Yuan asked coldly, "With your current attitude, do you want me to call Elder Gu here? Do you really think your attitude is just for me to see? Does Elder Gu not know at all?"
As soon as Feng Yuan finished speaking, everyone present fell silent.
Even if some people are not present, they are not people who can be easily discussed. Obviously, Gu Yucheng is definitely number one in Bei Shang Street.
Feng Yuan looked at the people who quickly fell silent and sighed inwardly, "Sure enough, I am not Elder Gu. His reputation was created by himself, and I can only rely on Elder Gu's power..."
After everyone shut up, they all looked at Li Yi and Yuan Shi'an. Yuan Shi'an looked indifferent, but Li Yi's face was as gloomy as a rag in a swill bucket, dirty and ugly.
Feng Yuan took advantage of the silence at the scene and directly ordered, "This is all Elder Gu's decision. Do you have any questions?"
This time no one came forward and everyone remained silent. ——If you have any doubts about Elder Gu’s decision, wouldn’t that be a direct confrontation with Elder Gu? I don’t even dare.
Feng Yuan looked at the wilted people, then turned to Wang De and others who were a little scared and said
"Innkeeper Wang, come, let's eat together, don't be formal."
Wang De and others nodded and took a few bites absentmindedly.
At this time, Li Yi spoke again, "Since it is Elder Gu's opinion, we naturally won't say anything. However, we are also merchants who pay commercial taxes. Why should we sit with these people who have not even paid commercial taxes?" "
Feng Yuan frowned and wanted to speak, but was directly interrupted by Li Yi, "Is this also Elder Gu's order? - This is looking down on us too much. This resource allocation requires our efforts after all. These people If you don’t do anything, why should you sit with us?”
Feng Yuan didn't know as much as Nan Xun, but he also knew that Wang De and others had no role in this distribution.
What's more, even if it has no effect, being on Gu Yucheng's side is the biggest effect. Why would Li Yi point fingers here?
Feng Yuan wanted to explain, but was directly interrupted by Li Yi, "Even if Elder Gu comes today, he still has to give us an explanation! It's not that we don't obey Elder Gu, it's that Elder Gu disrespects us!"
The crowd was encouraged again and began to make noises and screams.
Feng Yuan wanted to retreat, but he knew he had no way out.
"It's easy to deny it when one person is wagging his lips and talking about ambiguous truths. But when a group of people gather together to make trouble, it's really troublesome. I can't believe that this group of people actually treat Gu The Elder Council is very afraid, and Elder Gu is really powerful." Feng Yuan sighed in his heart.
Just when Feng Yuan was about to participate in this meaningless debate and quarrel, the door of the shop was suddenly opened.
I saw a person walking in very leisurely, humming a tune as he walked, and stepped directly in front of Feng Yuan, "Hey! Shopkeeper Feng! Long time no see!"
When Feng Yuan saw the visitor, he stood up quickly and said, "Mr. Qian!"
Qian Yangyu smiled and said, "I'm here to see Brother Gu! Hahaha! Huh? There are so many people, what's going on?"
Feng Yuan was a little at a loss.
Although Qian Yangyu is Gu Wenyue's friend, he doesn't know whether Qian Yangyu can solve the current situation, and Feng Yuan doesn't want to tell Qian Yangyu for the moment.
What's more, according to the rumors about the Qian family, the second son Qian Yangyu has no regard for heaven and earth, and telling him might be a disservice.
Just when Feng Yuan was hesitating, Gu Yucheng directly sent a message, "Let Brother Qian give it a try."
Feng Yuan was stunned.
Gu Yucheng, who was on the second floor, smiled.
Qian Yangyu just sent a message, telling An Ye, Jia Shicai and Li Jiang that they would come to see him soon. Gu Yucheng was very surprised and asked why these three people thought of coming to see him. Qian Yangyu directly replied, "I see It seems that you are going smoothly in organizing the North Commercial Street, but there is nothing wrong with wanting to add icing on the cake. Calling them here, without doing anything else, is not to strengthen your reputation? It just so happens that they haven't seen you for a long time and want to come and see you, so I will let them come. ”
Gu Yucheng was very grateful. After all, Qian Yangyu was right. The arrival of the three people would indeed help him.
So Gu Yucheng and Qian Yangyu continued chatting. When they talked about today's banquet, Qian Yangyu showed special interest and specifically asked to give it a try.
Gu Yucheng was embarrassed to ignore Qian Yangyu's request, not to mention himself. If it didn't work, Gu Yucheng would take action himself, so he agreed.
After Feng Yuan received the message from Gu Yucheng, he whispered everything in front of him to Qian Yangyu.
Qian Yangyu listened with great interest. After listening, he walked straight to Wang De and looked at Li Yi as he walked, "You don't seem convinced? Do you think Elder Gu doesn't think as much as you do? Or does it mean that Elder Gu is not as capable as you?"
Almost everyone didn't know Qian Yangyu. When they saw Qian Yangyu's rude words, they wanted to curse, but when they saw that Li Yi could endure it, they wisely shut up.
Li Yi saluted Qian Yangyu with respect and said, "Of course I'm not questioning Elder Gu. I just feel that this would be harmful to us..."
"Hmm! It's delicious."
. Hiss-his, this is not bad either. "
Before Li Yi finished speaking, the sound of Qian Yangyu sipping wine and eating rice kept coming out, as if he was dragging everything on the table into his stomach.
Qian Yangyu ate while standing and signed almost every dish.
While eating, Qian Yangyu turned around and smiled at Wang De, "Come on, let's eat together."
Li Yi saw Qian Yangyu acting as if there was no one around, and his heart was full of anger. "What the hell, a second-generation ancestor is here to disrupt the situation!"
Although he was angry in his heart but showed nothing on the surface, Li Yi still smiled and said, "We are not questioning Elder Gu."
Qian Yangyu picked up a piece of meat and put it in Wang De's bowl, "Have a taste." Then Qian Yangyu looked at Li Yi, who had fallen silent, "What do you think?"
Li Yi took a deep breath, calmed down, and explained with a smile, "We just think that the improvement of Bei Shang Street this time is at least due to the efforts of us merchants, let us sit together and enjoy the same treatment as these people who are enjoying the results. , it’s a little unfair, right?”
Li Yi finally finished speaking in one breath and asked with a little complacency, "Presumably Elder Gu won't treat others unfairly, right?"
Li Yi's words were clearly meant to suppress and exclude Wang De and others. They were just high-sounding words.
Yuan Shi'an lowered his eyes and sighed in his heart, "This Li Yi is really cruel enough to directly make things difficult for the second young master of the Qian family."
Everyone looked at Qian Yangyu anxiously, but Qian Yangyu suddenly applauded.
"You're right! You're right! That's right! Just keep it fair!" Qian Yangyu kept agreeing.
Everyone present was shocked and overwhelmed by Qian Yangyu's dangerous turn, and for a moment they didn't know what to say.
Even Li Yi himself took it easy for a long time.
After Li Yi calmed down, Li Yi couldn't help but laugh in his heart, "He's not just a child with a yellow mouth. I actually got in."
However, this joy of spring breeze did not last long. Qian Yangyu changed the subject and asked, "But this time the improvement of Bei Shang Street has not yet begun, and shopkeeper Li has concluded that these people can't contribute much? It's too much." That’s too arbitrary!”
Qian Yangyu looked directly at Li Yi, and Li Yi was choked.
Qian Yangyu then pursued the victory, "The Qian family and the Xiao family are different! You know! The Qian family is a family that values fairness! Don't bring the arbitrariness that Shopkeeper Li learned from the Xiao family to the Qian family! You must also change it!"
Li Yi looked like a fat fish enjoying the bait. He was suddenly pulled out of the water. Before he could realize what was going on, he could only stare with two big round eyes and open and close his mouth. But nothing could be said.
Qian Yangyu raised his eyebrows, "Tsk? What? Does Shopkeeper Li think the Qian family is being unfair? Or does he think the Xiao family is better?"
This is definitely a gift proposition.
You can't have either of these two options.
Qian Yangyu smacked his lips and spat out a shred of meat. "It's some meat, it's meat. It's just stuffed in the teeth. It can't be eaten. It can only be vomited. It can't be taken. Why do you think he needs to stuff his teeth? Is there any benefit?" ? It’s completely useless. So as a human being, you must not be like stuffed teeth, which are even worse than chicken ribs. Chicken ribs are tasteless to eat, and it is a pity to throw them away, so they are not popular. But stuffed teeth are inedible and can only be discarded. That’s it. I’m born to be disliked by others.——You think so, Li Yi?”
Qian Yangyu is targeting Li Yi. The last sentence was directly named. Doesn't this just tell Li Yi not to make stuffed teeth? This is a warning to Li Yi!
Everyone present looked at Qian Yangyu's appearance and were speechless. Looking at Li Yi, whose face was blue and purple, they immediately chose to eat silently.
Yuan Shi'an looked at Qian Yangyu and began to ask himself, "Elder Gu is such a powerful person, how can his friends be so useless and make great things difficult to achieve? This Qian Yangyu is despised by everyone! "
Qian Yangyu looked at Li Yi and said lightly, "This banquet is fair." After saying that, he turned around, smiled at Feng Yuan, and headed towards the second floor.
